Nathaniel Blake.

Captain Nathaniel Blake quietly passed
away at his home, No. 50 Danforth street,
last Saturday morning at nine o'clock.
Captain Blake was born in Scarboro, June
4th, 1911. His father, Captain Nathaniel
Blake. married Mary, daughter of Captain
John Libby, direct descendant of Captain
John Libby, one Of the original settlers of
Scarboro. Captain Blake was educated at
Gorham Academy. AT the age of II years he
went to the West Indies as supercargo in one
OF his fathers vessels. At the age of 10 he
was made master. In 1888 he married Eliza.
daughter of Captain John Stockman, who
owned the packet line between Portland and
Boston. His home was on Plum street,
where the Rolling Mills Office now stands
In 1884 Captain Blake and John b. Stockman
bought out the dry goods business of Hon. S.
K. Lyman, but, finding this business uncon-
genial, Captain Blake sold out and returned
to the West India trade. During several
years thereafter he built good many vessels
and was largely engaged in the West India
traffic. In 1886 he built one of the houses in
Park Street Block, the one occupied bv NV
Warehouse, Esq, where he livea Cor MANY
years, Some twenty odd years ago he estab-
lished what is now known as the Eastern
Packet Line, a feet of some fifty vessels
running to all'the principal ports between
Boston and st. John.
Captain Blake united with the Second Par
ish church ander DR.. Payson, aud in 1887 re-
moved mis- church relations, as did his wife
hers, to the High street church, of which he
mas always been a consistent and earnest
member. When master of vessel and at
anchor in foreign port. he invariably on
Sunday hoisted the Bethel flag and himself
conducted religious service In 1887 he was
secretary ofthe Portland Temperance Society
and has referred in late years with pride to
the fact that drop of liquor never
passed his throat. In 1S49 he went to Cali
fornia, and for year commanded the steamer
which sailed between Panama and San Fran
cisco.
Captain Blake was universally respected
and possessed that rare virtue, sterling integ-
rity. He was kind hearted and always good
natured. He leaves a widow, with whom he
has lived in happiness for fifty-four years,
and four living children-George H., the well
known broker; Joseph H., who has for four
teen years been connected with him in bust
ness; N. F., who lives in New York, and
Mrs. e. o. Wildes of this city.
The funeral services will take place at 80
Danforth street at o'clock this afternoon.
